About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Mallard Point - Cabin 1

Our little peninsula has been a Northwoods getaway for the past 75 years. Formerly Mallard Point Resort, we're keeping the tradition alive by welcoming guests back to this multi-cabin, micro-resort style stay. This is the kind of place where you can expect to see other guests and share outdoor spaces (or bring friends and rent all three cabins to have the place to yourself!). We're less than 10 minutes from downtown and 20 minutes from Tioga MTB trails. This listing is for Cabin 1.

Cabin 1 has natural wood finishes, an open living and dining space, and a kitchen and bathroom stocked with everything you need for a comfortable stay.

⇸ High ceilings with large windows that face south for views of the lake and lots of natural light.
⇸ Gas range and kitchen stocked with all the essentials- cookware, dishes, coffee, soaps, towels, etc.
⇸ Loft with a quality king-sized bed and ground floor bedroom with two twin beds.
⇸ Fully winterized with a gas fireplace.
⇸ We allow families of 5 if you have a child in a travel crib.
⇸ Fast WiFi - 250mb up/down

What We Love About It
We love the access to the lake, it's so easy to get out paddling, fishing, sailing, snowshoeing, or just take in the views from an Adirondack chair.

A Great Getaway
We loved this cabin! It was perfect for our family of four. The lake is beautiful and quiet during the week, with a nice swimming beach on the property. The cabin had multiple USB chargers, and nightstands on both sides of the king bed. There are NEVER two nightstands, so this was very well thought out. The fridge is small as advertised, so we just kept drinks in a cooler outside. Not a problem at all, especially if you had a shorter stay. I really enjoyed sitting in the shade, reading my book while the kids swam. My brother rented the cabin next door, making it a fabulous family week. I highly recommend it!

Beautiful place but probably won’t be back
Property was beautiful and as described online. After 2 different situations with the owner will likely never be back which makes me sad because the property was gorgeous and my kids had a great time. Be sure when you’re renting from her with a pet, be sure VRBO brings your search requirements. During my search I included my dog but unfortunately that didn’t carry over when booking. Probably a click error when I booked. She was extremely rude regarding that when it was an honest mistake and all she needed to do was bill me for the pet fee. Also when checking in I arrived at 1:00p(acknowledged I was early) asked if the cabin was ready. I was advised “the cleaners have until 2:45p but happen to be done early, so I could check in early”. My interactions with her were very poor and ruined my experience.

Quiet Lakefront Oasis
What a great cabin, on the waters edge with a great host! With boats to use and your own personal dock, you can spend time enjoying nature to its fullest. The beds are nice and comfy and there is plenty of space to hang out indoors if you really want to. The charcoal grill and fire pit were a nice add on too.

Very comfortable and wonderful lake views. We stayed for three nights and were very comfortable. We appreciated how close the cabin is to the Suomi Hills ski trails. The kitchen is well-equipped and we also were thankful for the gas fireplace. Very quiet and cozy. Thank you!

Thanksgiving Get Away
We haven't been anywhere since March of 2020. Emily was amazing to work with about our stay from reservations to checking in. It was so nice to get away. We met up with some family from up North and they had stayed at the cabin last year and suggested the cabins to us. It was a very relaxing holiday!

Amazing CABIN!
My husband and I wanted a nice, quiet and peaceful weekend and that is exactly what we got here! Just serene and breath taking! We rented during the 2nd week of November, so expected snow and cold- but my oh my the cabin can hold heat! There were even times we had to turn the heat down as it held all the heat so nicely! The cabins are very clean as well! Pictures do no justice for the cabins as they are soooo much better in real life! Emily and her husband are very great hosts and are quick to respond to any questions/concerns, which we really appreciated! Long story short, you do not want to skip out on this cabin, you won't regret it!

3rd year in a row, even the rain couldn't ruin our trip
The weather wasn't ideal, but with all the activities provided at this cabin, we were never without something to do. Kayakin, Maui Mat, swim beach, the "Magic Dock" for fishing, the friendly family, everything was just as awesome as it has been the last 2 years. We will be back for a 4th for sure!

We had the most wonderful stay at this charming cabin on Prairie Lake. The hosts were amazing and provided everything needed for a home away from home experience.

Wonderful Property and Cabins
Just when we needed to get out of the house for a bit, we were very lucky to find this property with openings for the time we wanted. We stayed a week and were very happy with the accommodations, the friendliness of the owners (and their children), the kayaking and hiking and swimming. My 3 year old daughter was sad that she had to leave and "missed" the cabins before we even got into the car.
